How can I find a doctor in WA who knows sign language?

  • My deaf friend is looking for a doctor who will be able to speak directly to him, rather than through an interpreter. We aren't sure how to begin looking for this. Does anyone know of a doctor who knows ASL or SEE in NW Washington state, or maybe an online database or some resource for finding this?


  • If your friend doesn't want an interpreter (which he/she is legally entitled to), the only other resource I can think of is to contact the American Medical Association directly and ask them. Most doctors are members of the AMA, and their complete information is kept in their database.

    You'll find the link below. Once you click on it, you'll see the "contact us" link in the upper, right-hand corner of the page. Good luck.
